But Seriously, Folks, When Did This Actually Happen?
Alright, alright, enough with the dramatics. You probably just want the juicy details (and maybe a little reassurance that hurricane season isn't upon us... yet). Hurricane Irma paid an unwelcome visit to Florida on Sunday, September 10th, 2017. That's right, it wasn't even a workday! Imagine the chaos of hurricane prep colliding with Sunday brunch plans. Talk about a stressful mimosa.
Here's the kicker: Irma wasn't satisfied with just one hello. This hurricane was a two-hit wonder, making landfall in the Florida Keys as a Category 4 storm before moseying on over to Marco Island later that day as a slightly less intense Category 3.
Tip: The details are worth a second look.
Moral of the story? Don't underestimate Mother Nature. And maybe stock up on some extra brunch supplies in case a hurricane decides to join the party.
